I have finally found the name of the style or architecture commonly used in the Mullwood area of Calabasas and a great number of homes in Woodland Hills. I always called it the Brady Bunch style, but in fact the style is known as Shed. Below is a complete definition:
Shed--A subset of the Modern style, including Ranch, Split Level, and Contemporary, Shed homes were particular favorites of architects in the 1960s and 1970s. They feature multiple roofs sloping in different directions, which creates multigeometric shapes; wood shingle, board, or brick exterior cladding; recessed and downplayed front doorways; and small windows. There's virtually no symmetry to the style.
